Description
First I thought of uploading both of these photos taken in Barcelona at plaza trippi. My girlfriend came with the idea of combining them. Soo 5o % of the credits are for her..As I mostly do, I only changed the color balance, I've put a mask on top and started to erase parts of the top image. I finalised the picture with the dodge tool and the burn tool..
Hope you like it..

Hi Karen, I'd like to help if I can.. Ofcourse you have to start with good images in the first place, but that won't be a problem for you.. Put them in different layers and add a mask on the upperlayer. You can create a mask by pushing the square with the circle inside, that you find down under the layer bar.. With the brush you can make parts of the upper layer dissapear. Set the colour of the brush in black to erase. White will make the upperlevel reappear. That's the fun part, because you can always change around without erasing the original image. Always make sure you're working on the mask and not on the image, else you will be drawing on the image (click on the mask, that you find on the layer, right from the original image). Use big soft brushes to give it a gradient overflow.. Ok Karen, this should get you started.. I hope my explanation is a bit clear.. The rest is "trial and error" and google around for some tutorials..

The structure is very interesting.

I really like this one. The lines are a bit softer than your other stuff but it's still got good definitions & shapes, and that's a great job you did blending the two together! (I still have problems with getting overlays to turn out the way I want them to.)

Thank you! It is true this piece is bit different then the others, but you can see I am always searching for shapes and lines.. If I can give you a tip: use masks and big soft brushes, it will make the overlays more natural..

that'sinteresting, and the texture also.. It has a Francois Schuiten feeling (the tones and the slight colours..)
Keep it up with architectural photos..

Thank you! That' s a big compliment! I never thought about it when I was making this piece, but I do have Brusel standing on my bookshell, soo it is likely he influenced me..
